Live Painting Exhibition

with Artist-in-Residence Geoff Farnsworth

We are completely thrilled to have Geoff Farnsworth as our artist-in-residence for the duration of the Holiday HandMade Market! You’ll be able to observe him painting live on-site at the centre of the market at the entrance to the 13th Street Holiday Café and Wine Bar.

Geoff is a local contemporary fine artist whose paintings explore a relationship between figurative and abstraction in order to meld unconscious probing and stylistic innovation with a meditative figural base. For Geoff, it's important that his paintings work well as collections of shape, colour, texture, and energy; while also building a compelling image.

Geoff's works have been shown in New York City, Washington, D.C., Minneapolis, Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary, the Niagara region, Thunder Bay, Vancouver, Sweden, Norway and Trinidad. Currently, he works from a large communal studio space in downtown St. Catharines.
